TaylorMade designed its Tour Preferred line of clubs for serious golfers with moderate to low handicaps who are looking for just the right utility club. Offering a small, woodlike head and shallower center of gravity, this versatile hybrid club can be used in place of fairway woods or unwieldy long irons. Introduced in 1994, the Rescue Mid TP Hybrid allows the golfer to execute a lower launch angle as well as a flatter trajectory to ensure the golf ball goes the needed distance toward the green. The No. 3 19-degree hybrid club also features a VDR midsized grip designed for all-weather play.
